Undercard bout
|
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Krzesimir Ciupaga (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and God Zilla (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Ciupaga kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Polak potrafi. Zilla is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Your arms feel like home.. These two fighters really are very evenly matched on the feet - it will be fascinating to see who can assert themselves in that aspect of the fight.
